About this property

Central Madrid. Barrio Letras, Walking distance to Museums, Plazas and GranVia,

Perfect alternative to expensive hotel room without giving up luxury or location! Beautiful historic building completely renovated with all modern amenities and elevator, the building is completely brand new inside, but with original facade outside on popular Huertas street, extremely close to Prado, Thyssen and Reina Sofia Museums and the Palacio Real (Royal Palace), in historic downtown center of Madrid, the famous Barrio de las Letras.

The apartment has a very comfortable Queen bed ( 160 cm )
and 2 sofa beds in the living area. The bedroom has 3 walls and is not totally private. You can see it in the pictures.

I have lived in Madrid for the past decade, glad to help you choose the best places to visit in and around Madrid. The apartment is right next to Plaza de Santa Ana. Near Puerta del Sol and the Plaza Mayor and the Museums.

The Metro subway station is a few steps away, so that you may easily move around Madrid, as well as a short walk to the Atocha Main Train station.

You will love it!

*If you stay for more then a week, we have a complimentary cleaning that you can schedule at check in. This includes change of towels and sheets. No charge!

*All of our sheets and towels are professionally dry cleaned.

We loved our stay at this very comfortable and beautiful apartment. The two balconies bring in so much light, and the living room is very relaxing and comfortable. Great building, and most of all, fantastic location. Barrio de Las Letras has a great vibe, wonderful restaurants, and great walking and shopping… all right out the front door. It is also walkable to so many of the main sites to visit in Madrid. Can’t wait to return! Highly recommend!

The apartment is very nicely decorated with a well equipped kitchen. The reception was very friendly and helpful. The location in the city is convenient to many sites, restaurants, bars and shopping. Our only complaint is the noise from the street and nearby bars at night, as well as noise from other apartments.

This apartment was super clean. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we could need. It was very close to walk to lots of sites & restaurants. The host communicated quickly to our messages and provided lots of information about the area, restaurants, museums, etc. There is a nightclub a few doors down that we could hear some noise from, but it did not keep us awake. We loved our stay!

This apartment was wonderful. The owner and property manager were very conscientious and attentive. The location is a 5-minute walk to the metro (Antón Martín). The neighborhood itself is walkable to a number of other great neighborhoods and attractions. While Calle de las Huertas has a number of restaurants and clubs, the walls of the building were so think that I hardly heard any sound outside when going to sleep. I was on a work trip, but this apartment would also be great for individuals or couples of all ages looking to explore the city.

First time in Madrid

We could not have picked a better place to stay! The apartment was perfect with all the amenities. The location was great, close to the subway and easy walking to many attractions. The owner and onsite manager were most responsive. As a VRBO owner myself, I definitely give it 5 stars and will stay again on our next trip to Madrid!John

Fantastic Place in Barrio de las Letras in Madrid!

My partner and I enjoyed a week at this lovely apartment in Barrio de las Letras in Madrid. Our host communicated very well with us and made the process a breeze for this VBRO first-timer. The inside has hardwood floors, is tastefully decorated, and is well-equipped with amenities. The view from the balcony is truly enchanting- and there’s even a flea market right outside your door on Saturday afternoons! The neighborhood is centrally located and the dining and entertainment options, even just in this area, are endless. You can walk to many of Madrid’s great attractions such as the Prado or Retiro. We found the neighborhood to be safe. A great choice!

Fantastic little apartment !

We were very happy with apt 1C. If you are looking for a centrally located apt in Madrid where you can explore everything by foot this is it. The apt is in a lovely, secure building on a tree lined pedestrian only street with tons of cafes, shops and restaurants a stones throw away. We loved the tall ceilings and little shuttered balcony. It’s very clean, comfortable, well stocked and nicely decorated. I was a little concerned about recent reviews saying it’s noisy but it was quiet every night except for Saturday night with some rowdy partiers on the street. But even then, it wasn’t a big deal at all. Just close the windows and shutters and it helps. We would 100% book this apt again.

Great apartment & neighborhood but noisy at night.

The apartment is nice and in a good central location. Neighborhood is lively with restaurants, shops etc. The issue we found was there’s a night club below that opens around 10pm and goes til 4am or so. It gets loud with people hanging out in front smoking, yelling, laughing etc. I had to sleep with earplugs every night which wasn’t the worst thing but not what I’m looking for on a vacation. Other than the club issue the apartment is great along with owner Greta and the ladies that work for her.

Perfect for a family of 3

Overall a great property. Has everything you need. It’s well appointed & super clean. Communication was on point and the host even provides wonderful recommendations. Literally only hiccup is that it is in the best location because it is in the middle of everything but with that came some noise issues. Really just Fri and Sat night when ppl stayed up later. But otherwise a perfect place.

Disappointing stay

My husband and I stayed at this property for one week in March. My contact with Gorete was excellent and she has many useful recommendations.We were not greeted by her but by her assistant Alicia. Between the time she opened the door and left after having “explained” how things worked in the apartment was 4 minutes tops.The apartment is a suite and not a one bedroom- there are partitions separating the liviving room from the bed and the bed from the bathroom.It is relatively well-equipped and is well situated for many must see sites in Madrid.There is also a good restaurant just downstairs.The real downside of the apartment is the noise. There is a bar 2 doors away and a youth hostel a few hundred meters up the street. The partying is nightly in the street until 4 am.Gorete had told me that she had inner courtyard apartments that were quieter but darker, but we never expected that amount of noise so late into the night or early morning.

Our family moved from California to Madrid in the year 2000. We love Madrid and I am sure that all our guests will love it too.
I like to meet my guests and always try to be as helpful as possible. We do have several apartments in the same building and if you read our reviews you will see that most people really enjoyed their stay with us.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location! This is smack-dab in the middle of the historic Barrio de las Letras (Literature Neighborhood) very romantic, safe and with countless places to eat, people-watch, on a pedestrian street (no traffic).

What makes this property unique

The building was completely gutted a few years ago and they saved the facade and the 100 year old staircase, but everything else is brand-new modern construction and a modern elevator. We have furnished and equipped the apartment with everything we would like to find in a rental, we use VRBO ourselves when we travel so we understand that small details are paramount. Besides, we have lived in Madrid for over a decade, so we are happy to steer you to the best suggestions, whether they are restaurants, site seeing, shopping, trendy restaurants, family places or unique Madrid experiences depending on your date of travel.
